collective experience

Prior to the start of Russell + Mills Studios, both partners were able to collect a vast amount of experience on a wide variety of projects. As senior landscape architects each won work, managed projects, project teams and in some instances lead entire consulting teams. This experience helps define the level of professionalism and the passion each partner brings to this company.
